She was okay, other than the fact she had a major weakness in that she could night go to her right and shoot, and that she pretty much peaked out by her Freshman year. But having said all of that, she would be in my top 25 All Time Greats from the 16th Region.

 

 

She may have "peaked out" by her freshman year, but she could play circles around most nonetheless.

 

I would add Alison Osborne from Russell to that list. She led Russell to a regional championship in '94 I believe.

Unbelievable quote! Clueless!!! All time leading scorer at East Carter in 3 seasons.

Laura Terry and Kasi Mullins-Galloway are the best I have seen but there has been so many good lady players, more than people realize. From Regina Carroll, Toni Wright and Angie Johnson to the girls of the past few seasons like Kala Faulkner, Megan Gearhart and Emily Queen our region has been blessed with outstanding players and young ladies as well.

There is a difference bewtween being a great player and a leading scorer.

No doubt about it she was better than most but I could say the same about Bernard King who played for the New York Nicks in the early 80's. He led the his team in scoring, led the NBA in scoring but he is not considered to be in the NBA top 25. Just because someone can score doesnt make them great. There are those that does score and are great because they make everyone else around them better. Where did she end up playing college ball at?

going by pure talent alone, Kasi Mullins-Galloway was by far the best talent this area has seen. Her travels to through area schools may have ruffled feathers and detracted a little from her game but she was an absolute physical specimen on the court.

 

 

Her best years was her 6th grade year at Fairview and when she took Boyd to state. She is not the best to ever play in this area. Statistics arent everything. My goodness, I know guys that were good but played on bad teams against bad teams, and had monster games in scoring...what does that prove? When someone scores 45 or 60 against Ironton St. Joe what does that prove, when they can only manage 13 or 14 against a really good team. I guess we ought to rate Kasi right up there with OJ

Bubba you must have missed the rest of Kasi's career! If I'm not mistaken she averaged better than 20pts a game her senior year at Knott Central. Ask any coach in the region if they would have taken her in those "OFF" years you forget to mention and I think you'll find that everyone of them would have taken her. Again, stats aren't everything, but potential is and she by far had the most potential.:thumb:

Kasi was the most talented player to play in the 16th region. I am not saying the best player, but by far the most talented. To my knowledge Kasi is not playing college ball anywhere, until we walk in her shoes we probably shouldn't pass judgement on her.

I'm not passing judgement on her! You have your opinion and I have mine. I think she was a good player but not in my top list of this region. Queen and K.Faulkner were better than her. Jennifer Swann IMO was more valuable than her (not a better scorer). You are thinking that I think she wasnt any good, I never said that. She peaked early regardless of her scoring ability. She was good but not in my top ten or top 15, top 20? Yes!

 

I have been watching girls play in this region for almost 30 years. The most talented player I have seen, inch for inch and pound for pound is Emily Queen, followed by Marla Gearheart, then probably Pam Stanfield of Russell. No doubt Kasi ranks up there when it comes to talent but thats another thread. Not this one.

Kasi was the best in this region ,you can take that to the bank. I've been watching girls basketball longer than most of you have been alive.Do me one favor before you judge her for off the court stuff walk a mile in her shoes. Don't forget the title for this thread is 16th region all-time players,to me that means on the floor. One last thing Big Bubba this was a message from the heart.

Is 30 years not long enough? I never judged her, all I asked was where she ended up playing college ball at. I heard once that UK was wanting her then I didnt hear anything else. And what do you mean that this message is from the heart? IMO, she still would not be in my top 10 ever in this region, regardless of her life on the court or off from the court or whether she ever played college ball or not. Potentially, she was one of the best but IMO she never acheived her potential, as so did not many others

Kasi is the best I have seen, she played like the girls game like an athletic boy would play it. She was more athletic, better skills, and a better understanding of the game than any others I have seen.

Well she is definitely, the best to come out of East. But once again it is just my opinion of all time greats. Never said she wasnt good, just not in my top ten. We have many today that plays the game with more atheticism then Kasi. Seals and Queen just to name a few.

I agree with you 16th62nd. She is the best that I have seen. She must have been pretty good for UK to offer her a scholarship.

Melissa Brown Russel had a very good college carrer to untill all her knee problems.

I really enjoyed watching Melanie Cornett of Rowan Co... She was a hardnosed player with an uncanny ability to score
